Better than a real spa towel.

Spas always have the best towels. Maybe it's because of the warm humid air, or the nice, relaxing smells, or the fact that a stranger has just spent an hour vigorously kneading all the tension knots out of your back, but it seems like there's no better feeling in the world than wrapping yourself up in one of those big fluffy towels after a massage or a skin treatment.

But then you've got to try really hard not to think about where that towel came from or whose towel it was before it was yours.

Because the truth is that however nice or soft or fluffy the spa towel is, it's still a public towel. It's been rubbed on countless butts, been scrunched up into countless armpits, been all up on hundreds of bodies. And yes, some of those bodies were really gross.

The best thing to do is to get your own big fluffy spa towel and enjoy the luxe spa life without having to contend with the mysteries of your towel's past. You could even bring it to the spa with you, if you really want. And you'll never be bothered again by the thought of other people's gross, sweaty bodies rubbing all up on your towel.

Unless you have a bunch of gross, sweaty, towel-stealing family members. Then I don't know what to tell you.
